Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted August 12, 2011 Super User Posted August 12, 2011 What gives?!?! First I had to work so late that I missed the first three quarters of the game. Then my internet is out when I get home. So I missed the fourth quarter of the game. (Charter Cable of Birmingham wasn't showing the Raiders game.) Then we go and lose to the dang Cardinals. The three positives out of this. 1 its only preseason. (we are always bad in the preseason) 2 the Broncos lost too. 3 the Raider Nation always overcomes. No one can keep the Silver and Black down.

Captain Obvious Posted August 12, 2011 Posted August 12, 2011 Dallas doesn't look too bad. We just couldn't stop the run that first series Defense overall wasn't bad and its clear that Ryan has one rule. When in doubt blitz then blitz again Ware is going to have a great season! Quote
Super User Catt Posted August 12, 2011 Super User Posted August 12, 2011 Hanging up their helmets before the season even starts huh, lol. aint gonna take them long to take out the Niners Quote

When in doubt blitz then blitz again Ware is going to have a great season! I think the blitzing was more because our starting corners never played. Newman and Jenkins were out. Blitzing can cover up some weakness in your secondary because your rushing the QB. They still had a few big throws on us though. Edit: I also read that the defense had trouble communicating because of fan noise, which is important in Ryan's scheme. Quote

endless Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 " Who dat? Who dat? Who dat say dey gonna beat dem Saints?" Yea Yea Yea.lol Yea but seriously thank god it was preseason not how much or bad Alex Smith look but starting of 0-5 is not good. ended with 2-7 10 yards and 2 sacks before they snatched him out. The rookie QB finished the game but stat wise very bad so................... Hopefully they can get they're act together before season starts. Quote

Super User 5bass Posted August 13, 2011 Super User Posted August 13, 2011 How quickly they forget the embarrassing defeat Seattle handed to them in the playoffs a few short months ago. LMAO ! It's a good thing the Seachickens did a little something last year because they may not win too many this year. Tavaris Jackson? Seriously? Quote
BassResource.com Administrator Glenn Posted August 13, 2011 BassResource.com Administrator Posted August 13, 2011 They said the same thing about Marshawn Lynch and Mike Williams. They're not saying that anymore. Quote
JoePhish Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 As far as Vick, I had the guy on my fantasy last year. He suffred a drop-off in performance the last several games of the season, oppsoing teams figured out how to stop him. I'm going to disagree with this statement. Go back and look at his fantasy totals down the stretch. They were on par with the rest of his incredible season as well as putting up a monster performance in Week 15 vs NYG, which is the week of my league's semi-final matchup. His worst scoring game that he started (according to my league's scoring system) was Week 11. Oddly enough that was also against the Giants. They didn't figure out anything the 2nd time around, more like Vick figured them out. Of course Philly rested him in Week 17 but if your league uses Week 17 then you need to find a new league, especially if that's when your championship game occurs. Quote

His dad taught high school football in my home town before going on to lead the greatest defense ever the 85 bears. They still use some of his plays in the high school and they are all blitz plays. Ryans go with blitzing like bass fishing and senkos. Quote
